Each year brings positive change, including a few additions to our staff. We are delighted to welcomeour new teachers, Mrs. Martini (3 rd Gr.), Miss Martin (4 th Gr.), & Mrs. Young (8 th Gr.), who have greatexperience from our other diocesan schools, as well as Ms. Cheema (7 th Gr.) who has taught in otherCatholic and Convent Schools outside our diocese, and Mr. Jorge our new FACTS Manager.

Communication

Communication remains a top priority here at Holy Infancy. I want to continue to help makecommunication between home and school a positive learning experience. Communication betweenschool and home is a critical element to a child’s success in school. We understand that when schoolleaders, teachers, and other school staff respect parents and share information with them openly andfrequently, parents are more likely to trust and work with the school to support their child’s learning.We will make this a top priority.

ALL of our staff works hard to make school a positive experience for ALL students. Holy Infancy iseagerly looking forward to enriching your child’s life. Thank you for understanding that it can take afew weeks for a child to acclimate to a new grade, workload, and teacher.

I especially thank all who are helping prepare for the new school year. Your commitment to ensuringthat Holy Infancy remains a celebrated and successful school is awe-inspiring. I eagerly look forwardto greeting students and families again. It remains an honor and privilege to serve as your principal.Together, I know we will make this school year one of growth and achievement for all children.

Warmest Regards,

Ms. Manasse

Principal
